This group is not about advancing the marketing agenda of any one company. We see our responsibility as that of providing free SharePoint education by providing knowledgeable people to give presentations about SharePoint topics. We ask that all speakers give presentations that show thought leadership and are not sales pitches. We seek to promote the awareness of best practices in the use of SharePoint. Our goal is to provide the Portlandia SharePoint community with presentations from well-known SharePoint luminaries such as SharePoint MVPs and Microsoft staff, vendors in the SharePoint partner ecosystem, and members of the local community including people from local companies that have implemented SharePoint and can talk about it.

Microsoft Flow hackaton
Lucky Labrador Brew Pub

Microsoft has a tool in preview called "Flow" - you should check it out: https://flow.microsoft.com/en-us/ in theory this tool will eventually roll out to Office 365 users and be an end-user option for creating simple workflow and systems integration beyond the SharePoint workflow platform. For example, maybe you want a Tweet to be logged in CRM then have a task show up in Slack - Flow might be a solution here.

But, how does it work? How easy is it to use? Is this a replacement for SharePoint Workflow? Is this a potential enterprise tool that will put Nintex or K2 out of business?

In initial research, lots of the Portland SharePoint community had trouble getting their Flow to work correctly, but there must be some way to do it! Let's uncover these things together. At this casual meeting we'll be doing group R&D around Flow. Bring your laptop and sign up for the Flow trial.
